Interesting honeypig, I'll have to add that to my reading list.

RAH has developed a tremendous sweet tooth since quitting drinking. Before that, he could not have cared any less about sweets of any kind. Even when he liked/wanted something, he'd eat a reasonable amount & be done.

Now he keeps buckets of candy on his nightstand & he's struggling with weight gain for the 1st time in his life.

You can do it Lexie! I am doing Weight Watchers right now with good results. IT's all about lifestyle change regardless how you do it.

Good for you Lexie!
I've been struggling to get back on track with healthy eating/exercise.
I had lost 40 pounds during the time I was with AH due to the stress and anxiety... not anything healthy I was doing ... But now I have gained 30 of it back. Ugh...

When I got pregnant with my first DS, I started to crave sugar.... and that craving has stayed with me ever since then... I thought it was just a pregnancy / hormone / mom thing, but reading through all these posts regarding stopping drinking and gaining a sugar craving, I'm thinking maybe that's really what happened... I was drinking a lot more, with XAH, back before pregnancy and kiddos... now it's only sometimes.

Anyway, good luck to you Lexie...
